Chapter 108: Drums and Songs (Pink 65+)
There are thousands of musical instruments in the world, and they all produce different sounds.
No matter how withdrawn and weird a person is, there is always a voice that is particularly attached to him, and once he hears it, he will fall for it and cannot resist.
When Mi Jinghuan saw that the hole flute was not successful, he immediately changed the instrument in his hand, and this time he chose a drum.
The size of the drum prepared by the Guyunfang Hall is not too big, with poplar as the drum body, and the drum surface is covered with buffalo leather, which is placed on a wooden frame, just high to the waist, and Mi Jinghuan is very handy when he beats it.
The sound of the drums changed the loneliness of the appropriate talents, and people couldn't help but boil their blood with it.
Although the Miaoyin Eight Methods were first created by Tan Mengzhou on the guqin, and slowly pushed to other musical instruments, the drum itself is far more exciting than other musical instruments, and has a natural advantage in expressing fierce joy and anger, and is more likely to affect the feelings of others.
Mi Jinghuan has been playing drums in his spare time, and he has been practicing intermittently for more than 20 years, and others can still say that he is rough, but he feels immodest and says that he can really be regarded as good at it.
The sound of the drums is brisk, combined with the complex dots in his hands, slamming and shaking, making people want to dance to this rhythm.
Mi Jinghuan is a person who does not accept defeat lightly, and seeing that the desolate sound of the flute does not touch Liji, he wants to try again once she is happy.
If the sound of the flute just now is a quiet spring under the moon, this drum is a jumping bonfire, unrestrained and enthusiastic.
Liki stopped dancing as soon as the drums sounded. At this moment, with the brisk and rhythmic dots, the body swayed slightly, as if he was a little eager to try.
Seeing this, Li Chengyun laughed, and suddenly put two fingers in his mouth and whistled loudly.
As if given some kind of hint, Lik's arms began to swing back and forth with the beat of the drum, and her hips began to swing more and more, and then she suddenly jumped forward on one leg, stamped her feet, and shook her arms. A series of actions are done like a cloud of peers. The bells rang in unison.
It's a completely different dance than you've ever seen before.
Unrestrained with a bit of wildness.
Liki didn't care that some of the movements in this dance looked unelegant, and she wandered to the sound of the drums, like a fish in water. When he jumped to the place where he forgot his shape, he stopped, bent down and pulled off the embroidered shoes on his feet.
A pair of jade feet in white silk stockings trample briskly on the red felt with the beat of the drum.
Liki at this time. It's like a bird that is not bound by the world.
Compared to her previous absent-mindedness, she is obviously completely engaged in dancing at this time.
Many of the ignored guests at the table opened their mouths slightly. couldn't react, the eldest colt and the second colt secretly went to see Li Chengyun on the main seat, but saw that he was not stunned, and looked at Li Ji with a smile. It seems to be in high spirits.
Du Yuanpu was also surprised, and he whispered to Wen Sheng: "Miss Gu, I seem to have seen this kind of dance. ”
Wen Sheng leaned over to him when he heard this. He covered his mouth with his hand and whispered, "Really? Mr. Du, please reminisce about it. Where have I seen this dance. She seems to have been born with it, I don't know how many times she skipped it, and it's not quite the same as the one just now. I think that's why she won't speak. ”
Du Yuanpu stared and pondered, he only had a vague impression for a moment, and it was really not so easy to remember.
An Lu Hou Shizi applauded: "Miss Liji dances so beautifully." After that, he turned his head and asked the dancing girl who was kneeling behind him, "It's so lively, why don't you go up and dance?" ”
The dancing girl hesitated, not knowing how to answer, and looked towards the main seat.
Li Chengyun's attention was on Liji, who was dancing, and he didn't pay attention to her at all, and the two horses on the side smiled: "I think this dance is also very simple, let's all go up and dance together, there are more people and it is lively." ”
The two horses are today's distinguished guests, he spoke, Li Chengyun could not ignore it, waved his hand, and the dancers got up one after another, surrounding Li Ji like the stars and the moon, imitating her movements.
Everyone felt that this Liji was dancing so happily, once the drum stopped, she would definitely speak, and the question that Li Chengyun gave to everyone was obviously going to be solved by Mi Jinghuan.
Just beat a drum, and he got a horse farm of Grandpa Guo.
However, people are musicians, and they have to be loved by God, and others can't envy them.
There were many people dancing on the field, and they were all the same dance steps, and the familiar scene was buried in the depths of his memory, Du Yuanpu whispered "ah", and he remembered it.
"Miss Gu, I don't know if you've heard of it, more than ten years ago, there was a small country called Hanzi to the west of my Daliang. It is said that it is a country, but in fact it is a tribe, there are not many people, they live in the grassland, and they live by grazing. I accompanied the general once, and the people of their tribe sat around the campfire at night, drinking, wrestling, and dancing this way. ”
Wen Sheng knew very little about these things, and asked quietly: "What about this Hanzi later?" ”
"They were invaded by neighboring tribes and destroyed the country, I accompanied the general that time, it was also because of this, when the king of Hanzi asked Daliang for help, the saint sent the general to talk to them about the conditions for sending troops, before the negotiation was reached, Dongyi suddenly invaded the East China Sea, and the saint summoned the general back urgently, and the matter of Hanzi was over." Du Yuanpu recalled.
"Do you remember if you saw this Liggie that day?" Although Wen Sheng asked this, he didn't have any hope in his heart.
If Liji was from the country of Hanzi, she was not yet ten years old at the time, and she was still a child.
Sure enough, Du Yuanpu said: "How can you remember this." ”
The encouragement on the field continued, Wen Sheng glanced twice, looked at Li Ji carefully, and said to Du Yuanpu: "Please Mr. recall it well and tell me in detail about this Hanzi country." ”
The drums were pounding, the rhythm was slowing down, and Mi Jinghuan beat the drums for half a day, and it seemed that he wanted to stop.
Whether Liggie will speak, and whether he can win the game, will soon be known.
"Boom!" A hammer struck the center of the drum, sending a low reverberation, and the drum ceased.
The drumming is quite physical, and the use of the eight methods of Miaoyin consumes energy, this drum lasts for a long time, Mi Jinghuan knocks it down in one go, feeling quite tired, and Liji's chest is also rising and falling violently, and she is not lightly tired.
The wheezing is slowly subsiding, but it's time to say something, right?
There was silence in front of the hall, and the first person to speak was Li Chengyun.
"I'm tired, come and rest."
Li Ji walked towards Li Chengyun, took two steps and suddenly paused, as if remembering something, she flinched, quickly went back to find shoes to put on, and then walked briskly towards Li Chengyun again.
That's it?
Mi Jinghuan took so much effort to immerse himself in the enthusiastic and cheerful drum beat, and even made Liji dance very happily, she hasn't even been honored by the beauty once, she can't really be a mute, right?
After Mi Jinghuan's toss, everyone's morale suffered a heavy blow, and whether it was a nobleman or a musician on the field, all the eggplants that seemed to be beaten by frost were wilted.
Seeing this, Li Chengyun smiled and said: "Okay, my lord will give you some time to think about it, but if it doesn't work, I'll honestly admit defeat." With a wave of his hand as he spoke, the dancers began to sing and dance again.
The second horse made fun: "It seems that your horse farm will not change hands, you can put your heart back in your stomach." ”
Li Chengyun shook his head, shook Liji's hand on the seat, and said affectionately: "If you can make her speak, what is a horse farm?" ”
Mi Jinghuan sat back in place, closed his eyes and meditated silently, ignoring anyone who came to talk, obviously not giving up.
The big horse groaned for a while, and said to Li Chengyun with a smile: "Actually, I specially invited a capable person to come today, and I was waiting outside, wanting her to help us." But with such a big gamble of yours in front of you, I don't think everyone has the intention of looking at anything else. ”
"Really? Even you have to praise a capable person, it must be unusual. Call him in. ”
"You must have heard of it, it's the newly hired lady of the Su'e Pavilion." A look of smugness flashed across the pony's face.
Now Li Chengyun was really a little surprised: "Isn't she unwilling to perform in public?" ”
The big horse sneered: "Stay with a group of courtesans all day long, teach them to sing some beautiful sounds, what else is there to be high, it's just to raise your own value." I'll do a little trick, won't she come? Grandpa Guo is still too pitiful and cherishes jade. ”
Li Chengyun smiled and did not refute.
The big horse sent the waiter out to summon people, and said with a smile: "Coincidentally, Miss Liji doesn't want to speak, but this girl is a master of using her voice." If she's lucky enough for a moment to impress Miss Ligi and get her to speak, you'll give me that racecourse. ”
They were not talking loudly, and the room was full of dancing and music, and it was far away that they could not hear what they were saying.
Du Yuanpu saw Li Chengyun and the big horse exchange a few words, and the big horse sent the waiter out, and couldn't help but be a little worried, and asked Wen Sheng: "What are you going to do?" In my opinion, whether you are sure of it or not, find a chance to try it first, even if it doesn't work, you can show your hand and leave a good impression on Zheng Guogong. ”
Wen Sheng thought to herself that on such occasions, there were several musicians such as Mi Jinghuan present, and she could be called "showing her hand", it was definitely not Fuqin, there was a sky outside the sky, and there were people outside the world, even if it was the way of calligraphy and painting, she didn't dare to say that there was no stronger than her among these guests.
Lee is not an easy person to be impressed.
"Wait a little longer." She quietly replied to Du Yuanpu.
At this time, the door of the hall was opened again, and the waiter said, "Master Horse, the women you invited have arrived." ”
The sound of dancing and music in the house stopped, and many of the guests looked at the door before they knew what was happening.
I saw a plainly dressed woman in Tsing Yi standing outside the door with her head bowed. (To be continued) R466
